Su Wenxiu’s eyes were burning brightly at that moment. Since his eldest brother and third brother had jobs and could earn money for the family, he was the only one using his family’s money and did not contribute to the family.

Indeed, he felt very guilty, but studying medicine to become a doctor was not something anyone could do in one go.

Su Wenxiu studied at the Hundred Herbs Hospital, so if he encountered any problems, Doctor Wu would explain everything to him in detail. Su Wenxiu would also ask his sister questions after the family had their dinner, and Su Binglan would answer them in more detail.

He spent most of his time studying at the hospital during the day, so he only had time to fiddle with his medicinal herbs at night. He would only plant more herbs whenever Doctor Wu was absent from the hospital for whatever reason.

Su Wenxiu never stayed still and studied earnestly every day. Not only did he learn medical skills, but he also learned how to write. He wanted to jot down and record the solutions to many complicated diseases.

He felt fulfilled that he had learned much during this period and could continue learning daily.

Su Binglan heard her brother’s questions and looked at him. She immediately understood what he thought when she saw Su Wenxiu’s bright eyes. She nodded and said, “Of course. These will come in handy.

‘Going to town to get medicine takes too long and costs too much. The herbs that you planted are of significant help to me and others. This can save several lives with the time it’ll save.”

Su Wenxiu laughed mischievously after hearing his sister’s words. “Heh, I feel even more determined and energetic when you say it like that. I shall plant more medicinal herbs then.”

The Su family’s house was expansive, and so was their backyard. It was enough for Su Wenxiu to plant many medicinal herbs. Perhaps he would be too busy to cultivate everything by himself one day.

Su Binglan noticed Su Wenxiu’s happy expression, which infected her emotions. She could not help but smile. “Wenxiu, you must believe in yourself. You will be a reliable person in the future.

“You’re doing well in studying medicine. One day, you can also take in disciples and students of your own. Then your students can manage these medicinal fields well.”

She looked at Su Wenxiu and suddenly thought of opening a medical school for him in the future—a medical school that belonged to this era.

However, that would all be in the future. It was better to help Su Wenxiu one step at a time instead.

Su Wenxiu’s determination surged at the thought of having his own students. “I will work hard, Sister! Oh, right, I went to Uncle Fengzhang and Aunt Ding’s house just now.

“I noticed that Aunt Ding is doing much better, but why did everyone say she couldn’t make it? I checked her pulse. I noticed she was depressed and didn’t have any severe illnesses.”

He had learned hope to check peoples’ pulses from Doctor Wu and Su Binglan.

Su Binglan fanned the fire under the medicine pot and patiently explained, “Aunt Ding was ill. It’s just that she was mentally ill, and that’s what depression is. Nonetheless, it’s like any other severe illness we should treat with utmost care.

“Don’t underestimate depression, as it can be fatal. When a person feels troubled, their body will respond and worsen, and if their minds are a mess, they won’t be able to sleep.

“If they don’t sleep well, their bodies won’t have enough rest, and their symptoms worsen.”

Su Wenxiu had studied under Doctor Wu and had witnessed some of his medical skills. He knew how serious mental illnesses could sometimes be.

“Sister, I heard that Aunt Ding became much better after you only used some needles on her. You used the legendary acupuncture technique, didn’t you?” Su Wenxiu’s eyes lit up as he spoke.

Looking at Su Wenxiu’s expression, Su Binglan said, “Are you interested in learning acupuncture, Second Brother?’

Su Wenxiu nodded excitedly. “C-Can I? Can I?!”

Previously, Su Binglan had used her acupuncture techniques to save Su Wenxiu when she took him back from the capital. He had wanted to learn it back then, but his sister said he would have to learn the basics of medicine before that.

After returning, Su Wenxiu worked hard to learn the basics. Still, he yearned to learn acupuncture because he thought it was magical, as it could sometimes cure diseases that most doctors could not.

Su Binglan nodded. “Sure, you can learn it now, but you must first memorize everything about the human body’s acupoints.”

“Okay.” A fiery determination filled Su Wenxiu’s heart

Su Binglan finished brewing the medicine after the two chatted. She poured it out, added some sugar, and stirred the mixture with a spoon.

“I put sugar in the mixture so it won’t be as bitter. Why don’t you deliver these to Aunt Ding and tell her what to do? I’ll give you a diagram of human acupoints when you return.”

Su Binglan knew her second brother yearned to learn acupuncture. After bringing him back from the capital, she used her free time to draw a human anatomy diagram.

She wrote down all the acupoints and drew them clearly. That way, it would be more convenient for Su Wenxiu to remember the anatomy and its acupoints. “Don’t worry, Sister! I will deliver these right away!” Su Wenxiu took the medicine his sister had prepared and went straight to his aunt’s house.

He woke Madam Ding Wan up to take medicine. Her expression changed when she drank it. “Is there sugar in this medicine?

She had taken many supplements over the years and would have had an easier time taking them if they had tasted sweeter. However, sugar was expensive, and no matter how bitter her previous medicines were, she could not bear to add sugar. She did that so that her family could save money.

Su Wenxiu replied, “Yes, Binglan said it’s so the medicine won’t be as bitter anymore.”

Madam Ding Wan smiled, saying, “Binglan is so meticulous and caring.”

Su Binglan had been sensible since she was a child. She was meticulous, spoke sweetly, and was very likable. However, Ding Wan heard that her niece had fallen on her head three years ago and started behaving like an entirely different person.

Ding Wan knew it was not the real Su Binglan then, but it seemed that the real one had returned.

Su Wenxiu did not leave before ensuring his aunt drank the medicine.

Meanwhile, Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian were by Ding Wan’s side the whole time.

Su Wenxian asked, “Mother, are you feeling better?”

He was still in disbelief and dared not blink, fearing it was all a dream. That was why he did not want to step away from the heated platform his mother was on.

Ding Wan looked at her husband and son’s red and swollen eyes. She knew they had cried a lot for her. She rested for a while before stretching one of her hands, saying, “Help me sit up.”

The father and son hesitated because they wanted her to rest as much as possible. Seeing the duo in this state, Ding Wan could only support herself to sit upright. However, she did not have the strength to get up or use her hands.

Su Fengzhang knew how stubborn his wife was, so he quickly reached out to carefully help her up and leaned her against the wall.

Ding Wan became tired with just a few minor movements. She panted for a while before saying, “Do you know why I was in a hurry to return home?

Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian did not know how to respond. Su Wenxian knew his mother typically kept certain things to herself. He and his father could not guess what she thought if she did not say anything.

Ding Wan looked at the two and shook her head. She sighed and said, “When we were away from the village, I once dreamt about Binglan..”
